Joyce not only used popular culture, he contributed to it. These essays employ a variety of critical techniques to bring out his involvement in the popular culture of his time. Treating all of Joyce's work from ""Dubliners"" through ""Finnegan's Wake"", they question the conventional idea that popular culture is the inverse of modernist high art, showing instead how popular culture intertwines with modernist (and postmodernist) art.
In a general historical introduction, R.B. Kershner looks at the entire question of Joyce and popular cutlure within the context of Joyce criticism and the cultural studies movement.
